Embrace a Few Beautifully Weathered Surfaces for a Happy, Durable Home (17 photos)

Vintage rugs offer another smart choice for rooms where comfort and ease of living are priorities. Of course, there’s virtually no limit on what an area rug can cost, so be on the lookout for vintage or thrift store rugs with the character that comes with wear. Or consider a new rug that has intentional wear built into the design.

When building, remodeling or decorating a house, it’s easy to get mesmerized by a gorgeous counter material or a shiny piece of hardware. Just make sure to contemplate how each selection will wear and affect day-to-day living in the newly designed spaces.
